An alleged altercation between two Rastafarian men in Ravine Chabot, Castries at about 2 p.m. on Monday, May 25 resulted in one sustaining several chop wounds.
The man was treated at the scene by EMT personnel then transported to hospital.
Unconfirmed reports are that the incident stemmed from an argument over a female.
An eyewitness described the man’s injuries: “He got chopped in the palm of his hand. Just the skin on the back of his hand holding it. And he got a lash of stone on his forehead and one on his back, then he got chopped whilst on the ground.”
The perpetrator was reportedly detained by police.
